How to Make Turtle Tart
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms. Add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to bring dough together.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of the pecans.
- Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
- Bake for 19-21 minutes, or until the crust is light golden brown.
- Let the crust cool for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the caramels and heavy cream. Microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the caramels are melted and smooth.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of the pecans.
- Spread the caramel mixture evenly over the cooled crust.
- Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- In another medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the caramel layer.
- Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup of pecans.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate is set.
- Before serving, let the tart stand at room temperature for 10 minutes to soften slightly. Store covered in the refrigerator.
